FIND YOUR FLOW. IN AND OUT OF THE WATER.

“A V8 needs to run on all cylinders in order to tow a load up a hill, looking after your own wellbeing is key.”

As good men we want to be the best version of ourselves possible. To be high performing fathers, partners, leaders and role models. To be a man who understands his purpose and takes responsibility for not only his own wellbeing but those around him. To lead by example.

Understanding and taking care of our own needs is what must come before understanding and helping others. As good men we want to take care of our family members and to contribute to society. However, in the process we often lose sight of ourselves. We often spread ourselves too thin, and when we do take time for ourselves feelings of guilt and shame arise.

When we start to look into health and wellbeing, we become overwhelmed by fad diets, meditation techniques, breathing modalities, optimal sleep regimes, how much water to drink, mental health opinions, exercise routines, relationship frameworks…

The surfing experience gives us a direct way of getting out of our heads and into our bodies, and it is in our bodies where intuition and wisdom lives. The lessons learnt from just one 30min surfing experience will be remembered for life. The chaos and unpredictability of the ocean offers opportunities for play, challenges to be overcome, fears to be faced and depths to be explored.

This exclusive men’s retreat combines the insights gained from the Surf Mastery podcast to give you the knowledge and tools to help you achieve a state of flow through surfing, help you become a better man and ultimately improve all aspects of your life.
